Rev. Jackson Lends Support to Chavez

[Niteowl]

I just saw this story tonight.
What gives him the right to go all over the world and try to undermine whatever it is our Government is trying to accomplish?
I understand the freedom of speech and all that yadda,yadda,yadda....But this loud mouthed self proclaimed peace activist and so called "christian reverend" and I use the term very lightly,in my opinion spreads more hate and discontent with his ramblings than even the most seasoned hate monger.Can the US Govt. not do anything to him for doing what he does? I mean by going to another country and lending support to a Tyranist who clearly has his crosshairs on the USA? Maybe I'm stupid or at the very least misinformed,but I would almost guess that this borders on Treason,correct me if I'm wrong please. Any thoughts?
